2. Right-click the Public folder and select Map Network Drive from the menu.

Mac OS X
(Yosemite, Maverick, Mountain Lion,
Lion)
1. In a Finder window, click the WD My Cloud device (see
“Appendix D: WD My Cloud Device URLs and Names” on
page 111 for a list of device names) under the shared items
in the side bar.
2. If presented with an authorization page, enter your
Username and password or select Guest and click
Connect to display the Public share.
3. Double-click the Public folder to display the subfolders:
Shared Music, Shared Pictures, and Shared Videos. You can
now drag and drop files into the shared folders using Finder.
4. If you want to create a shared drive icon permanently on
your desktop, create an alias. There are two ways to do this:
Note: Before creating an alias, click Finder > Preferences >
General and make sure Connected Servers is
checked.
- Click the item you wish to alias (e.g., Shared Music), hold
down the mouse button, hold down the Cmd and
Option keys simultaneously, then drag the item to where
you’d like to make an alias. Instead of moving the original
item, this action creates an alias at the new location.
- OR -
- Right-click the item you want to alias (e.g., Shared Music)
and click File > Make Alias.
